Song of the Week-
Stupid Little Things by Anastacia, from the album Resurrection
From the moment that I heard the new Anastacia track Stupid
Little Things I just fell in love with it, and knew that this was an artist
making a bold comeback in the music industry. I have always been a fan of
Anastacia, and whilst previous songs like ‘I’m Outta Love’ and ‘Left Outside
Alone’ might be really guilty pleasures, they are also classic pop songs of a
high calibre. Stupid Little Things finds Anastacia hitting that familiar stride
of bold, big vocals and simple, lightly clichéd pop lyrics, but she performs
with such a finesse and passion that you automatically jump on board. The song
focuses on the singer telling herself and us that she has to rid herself of the
little things in life and just let go so that she can enjoy the world and be
with this person. The chorus immediately grabs your attention, with the
catchiness of the song definitely being elevated by the singer’s impeccable
vocal performance. Adding both drama and euphoria to the track, Anastacia is
just vocally so strong, with the quirky delivery of the line ‘stupid little
things’ being a signature style that marks this as a track that only works for
this artist, because she was meant to record it. The stomping pop rock
production with the booming bass and feisty guitar riffs is a perfect pop sound
that acts as an equally as bold comeback sound for the singer as the lyrics and
vocals, and works in perfect syncs with all of the tracks other components.
Stupid Little Things is a great pop track that will see Anastacia continue her
great track record or delicious pop songs, and shows her resilience as a human
being and just an awesome artist.
